When does your browser make use of a Java plugin ?

[SBSP]

Lately I have been having allot of issues with FNB corporate banking for along while the way our IE was configured with GPOs I could only use FF. But now Oracle stopped developing the plugin. Wonder when FNB will change.

Recently Oracle has abandoned their Java browser plugin and now its only IE and FF - Extended that works.
Edge, Standard FF , and Chrome no longer supports it.

does your browser invoke the plugin with the below on an HTML page or not ?

<script>
window.alert("sometext");
</script>

Your browser should amke use of a java plugin when it encounters java.
The code you have above is javascript.

That is not a plugin. It is not Java. It is not spelt "allot", nor "along". Oracle does not develop Javascript. Edge, FF and Chrome all support Javascript

You are completely wrong.

Javascript (ie, the code you put in your post) is supported by almost all browsers (including IE) and all browsers that have support have a way to turn it off.

I think your problem lies elsewhere. Would you like to explain the symptoms and what you expect vs what you experience?

I realize now it was a dumb question.

Try this in any browser other than IE
https://www.java.com/en/download/installed.jsp

If it works you have an old browser.

Isnt it a bit of a bold move from oracle to get rid of it ? How many companies including FNB has to change their systems.
If I remember correctly corporate standard bank customers also rely heavily on java ?

JavaScript and Java are two different things.
It's not a bold move for Oracle to get rid of it, it's quite a security vulnerability. Oracle has announced their plan to remove it ages ago, the banks are just taking their time updating.

Np, I promise the above reply doesn't have any rick rolls.
